Given this playbook and inventory:
+$ cat hostvars.yml
---
- hosts: all
tasks: [ ]
- hosts: localhost
user: ansible
sudo: true
tasks:
- debug: msg={{ item.key }}
with_dict: hostvars
+$ cat hosts.ini
[tests]
673086-ialutil1
703165-ialprdproxy1
Ansible 1.7.2 gives this result:
+$ ap -t hostvars.yml -i ~/ansible/hosts.ini | grep msg
TASK: [debug msg={{ item.key }}]
**********************************************
"msg": "703165-ialprdproxy1"
"msg": "localhost"
"msg": "673086-ialutil1"
That is, the items in the dict are all hosts.
Ansible 1.9.3-1 gives this result:
+$ ap -t hostvars.yml -i ~/ansible/hosts.ini | grep msg
TASK: [debug msg={{ item.key }}]
**********************************************
"msg": "703165-ialprdproxy1"
"msg": "inventory_hostname"
"msg": "ansible_connection"
"msg": "groups"
"msg": "inventory_hostname_short"
"msg": "group_names"
"msg": "ansible_python_interpreter"
"msg": "localhost"
"msg": "673086-ialutil1"
Now there are a bunch of items in the dict that aren't hosts.
Is that expected? It bit us because we have a task that uses
'with_dict: hostvars' to do stuff with a couple of hostvars values for
each host, and that breaks if there are things in hostvars that aren't
hosts (e.g. there is no item.value.ansible_default_ipv4.address).
